Oh, of course, however any spare money from the underspend will carry over to the next budgets - was just suggesting this could be a future outlet for it if we are still racking brains for what to do with it :) There seems no harm in earmarking a potential Wikimania fund now and putting underspend in it by agreement. > BTW, Seddon started a draft bid page for 2013 in Manchester, which is at: > http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Manchester_Wikimania_Bid > that might form a useful basis to start developing an official bid, either > for 2013 or later. > Looks interesting; Manchester is a nice city & fairly accessible. It would be good to put together ideas for venues and assess the relative benefits of each of them (i.e. costs, accessibility, local wikipedians). Tom
